Countless chances went begging for Liverpool in the second period, as Pope was called into action on nice occasions. I saw everything, but I didn't see them too often scoring.

The defending continues to undermine everything. My job is to see the performance and we reacted really well.

Having Sadio Mane suspended obviously isn't ideal but Klopp will have to deal without the Senegalese worldwide for the next two matches.

Scott Arfield had handed the visitors a shock early lead at Anfield when he rifled home inside the penalty area after a catalogue of defensive errors.

For Luis Muriel's injury-time miss, read Ben Mee's twin headers, one cleared off the line by Joel Matip, the other saved superbly by Simon Mignolet. Left badly exposed for the goal, but he's no doubt used to that by now. Trent Alexander-Arnold lost a header to the diminutive Robbie Brady.

Given the nature of Arfield's strike, Klopp admitted that the Reds "could have defended much better". Then the block on Joel (Matip), it's hard to do better because the defender can not do it exactly the same because then it's a foul.

A second for the hosts looked a matter of when rather than if, but it never did arrive. Also conceded a corner late on when he went for the same ball as Emre Can, even though there was no Burnley player in the vicinity.

"It was a disciplined performance but just that one goal".

Late on, subDominic Solanke hit the frame of the goal as Liverpool pushed for that elusive victor.

He leaves one of our most expensive transfers on the bench for James Milner. Nearly created a late victor with a fine run and terrific cross to the back post, but Alexander-Arnold's shot was well saved by the keeper.

Grade Iowa football's win over North Texas
A 13-yard touchdown pass from North Texas quarterback Quinn Shanbour to Jalen Guyton gave the Mean Green a 14-10 lead at halftime. Fine proved to be a handful at times for Iowa's defense, as was Jeffrey Wilson on a 41-yard touchdown run in the first quarter.
